1-Bromo-1-methylcyclohexane is a monomolecular gas that is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It reacts with halides to form cyclopentyl derivatives. This reaction has been shown to be faster than the corresponding reaction of 1-bromocyclohexane with chlorides or bromides. The rate of this reaction may be due to the polarizability and conformational changes of the molecule upon substitution by a methyl group. 1-Bromo-1-methylcyclohexane is also an ionizing reagent, which means it can cause electrophilic reactions to occur on other molecules. It has been found that the solvent effect on this product can affect its reactivity, with solvents such as water having more of an effect than solvents such as benzene. 1-Bromo-1-methylcyclohexane has been shown to interact with other compounds in both transfer and complex

Rac-1-{[(9H-fluoren-9-yl)methoxy]carbonyl}-3-phenylpyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid is a chiral, stereospecific, cyclic sulfate that is synthetized by the reaction of glycol with lactam. It has been found to be effective against various types of cancer cells. Rac-1-{[(9H-fluoren-9-yl)methoxy]carbonyl}-3-phenylpyrrolidine 2 carboxylic acid is an enantiopure compound that can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of antiinflammatory drugs such as kainic acid.

4-Amino-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzamide is a catalytic sulfamate that has been optimized for use in the synthesis of benzimidazole derivatives. 4-Amino-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzamide is used as a reagent for the preparation of aldehydes from sulfamic acid and various types of carboxylic acids. The reaction mechanism involves nucleophilic attack by the hydroxyl group from the sulfamate on the carbonyl carbon atom to form an intermediate, which then reacts with water to release hydrogen sulfate and form a new double bond.

2,4-Dibromo-6-nitroaniline is a nitro compound that has been used in the production of dyes. It is also used as a component in the synthesis of other organic compounds. 2,4-Dibromo-6-nitroaniline can be produced by electrolysis of an acid solution containing radical cations and benzene. The radical cations are formed by proton transfer from the acid to the benzene, followed by electron transfer from benzene to the electrode. This process results in the formation of nitro groups on the benzene ring, which undergoes oxidation to form 2,4-dibromo-6-nitroaniline. The cyclic voltammetry shows that this process occurs via two pathways: one with a fast rate and one with a slow rate. The mechanism for this reaction is not yet known.

2-Phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole is a 2-phenyloxazole with an oxygen atom at the 1 position. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has antibacterial properties. This chemical can be used as a catalyst for the synthesis of organic compounds. 2-Phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole reacts with nitro groups to form oxime derivatives and has been shown to inhibit the growth of fungi such as Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger. 2-Phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole can also be used as an antifungal agent against Trichophyton rubrum.
2-Phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole may be synthesized by reacting phenol with acetone in the presence of nitric acid or sulfuric acid. The structural formula for this compound is
